MDH Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 2 hours ago, Marty McFly said: Ragland played good on Sunday. I wonder what team needed a run stopping LB with instincts this year...? Unfortunately the Bills need more than that. They need LBs who can both stop the run as well as get into their zones on D to defend the pass. The Bills biggest problems vs. the pass are the pass rush and the LBs inability to get the proper depth/position in their drops. Ragland is horrible in coverage. Sometimes it's not a matter on if a player is good, it's if he's a fit for the system. Ragland wasn't. I'd rather get value for him that have him wallow on the bench until his rookie contract was done. Unfortunately, this is the treadmill the Bills have been on for the better part of two decades. Draft players for a coach's systems, fire coach, change systems, get new players for those systems, repeat... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are last in the league in rush defense or something like that. Its good they got a pick back instead of cutting him but if he becomes a pro bowl LB im rubbin it in peoples faces.

I think the Bills D wanted more pass-rush in the game, which Eddie seems to provide more of. At any rate, I don't care who does and does not start. The D rotation on Sunday was great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Deek Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Does anyone know what the issue was? I have to admit I was impressed with our young Coach on that one. He had to be feeling a ton of pressure after three straight beat downs and then he goes and disciplines last year's Top Pick in the middle of crucial Road win. Apparently Coach knows what he will, and will not, tolerate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magox Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 There is no other way to put it, Shaq so far has been a disappointment. Being good against the run is important, but when you get drafted in the first round as a DE, you need to be able to apply consistent pressure, and he doesn't even come close to doing so.

Yarbarough and Davis have both been better IMO I think Yarbarough certainly has. And will be around next season.

Straight Hucklebuck Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 This is why I don't always buy the "jump from Year 1 to Year 2" hype that GMs like spin. This was supposed to be Lawson's perfect fit. But as we saw in the PreDraft process, Lawson is not a quick twitch elite athlete. He is playing exactly like his Scouting Reports.
